Post Your Unique DG Terminology

[The Shide]

When I first played disc golf many moons ago, we had poles instead of baskets. So when someone hits the pole of the basket (not the basket), I will sing out "Old school!"

I throw forehand, so when I throw an anhyzer it is known as a forehanny.

For horrible shots, we sometimes use "What the fu$$ Richard" from the below YouTube video.

I totally used this last round, i WISH we had the camera rolling because it was a long tunnel and we all pipe it down 300 and the last guy tee's off and grip locks and shanks it like 5 feet from the tee into thick bushes and trees and it took 10 mins to find, RIGHt after the throw I go "WTF RICHARD?!"

it was a good laugh

The term we use for playing disc golf in general is Chasing Plastic. Hey, ya wanna go chase plastic?

 

[Putt for D'oh]

Decapitating gophers - driving into the ground, often followed by several bill Murray impersonations and caddy shack

Going on an Easter egg hunt - looking for a shank or bad roll into the unknown. Often said to the group behind. "Go ahead and drive we are going on an Easter egg hunt"

Jedi mind trick - when the disc follows the directions shouted at it. "Come back around" "stop there" "miss that tree" "get down"

A new one for our local club:

At our course the Aviary we have Salient Liberty baskets. Since the owner of Salient is a well-known con artists, whenever someone misses a putt or has a spitout we look to the heavens, shake our fists and loudly bemoan: "Killlgguussss!"

Whenever a disc slips through a narrow gap , usually unintentionally, a few guys I play with call it "getting greasy."

When a disc gets yanked through seemingly impenetrable trees, doesn't hit any of them, and still lands favorably--a "seeing-eye" disc.

When a guy throws a 50 ft worm-burner, I often comment--does your husband also play disc golf (sorry ladies, no harm intended).
